Christmas

Sun Dec 18, 2005, 8:13 AM
Why isn't anyone talking about the birth of Jesus Christ? That's what Christmas is really all about. I'm not into extreme holiday decorations, especially before Christmas, but Christmas has real meaning to me.

What bugs me is how the holiday decorations go up before Christmas and even before Advent. Advent is the time of preparation in the Christian calendar before Christmas. We have a wreath with four candles and talk about the immaculate conception and John the Baptist.

What bugs me even more is how the holiday decorations go down after the first day of Christmas. Remember the twelve days of christmas song? That's real. Those twelve days of Christmas start when Jesus is born and lead up to the time we celebrate the coming of the Magi (Three "wisemen" or "kings" who bring gifts to Jesus)

I don't mean to ruin your holiday celebrations if you don't beleive in Jesus, but if you do, please go to church and understand what Advent/Christmas/Epiphany is all about.
